RAmen to that one.

A pasta with grand intention
Procured a fantastic invention.
But drinking too deep,
He fell in His sleep,
And created another dimension.

And my personal fave:

There once was a man from Nantucket,
Who took to the sea in a bucket.
With a crack and a creak,
The side sprang a leak.
The man from Nantucket said 'Well, Damn.'

Both very fine limericks. I'm not nearly skilled enough to come up with one.

The secret lies in coming up with either a last line or the two shorter lines. Once you have those, you will need to putz around quite a bit. Often, you will find that you need to change rhymes. Once you do so, some lines will change, possibly even the ones you used to start in the first place. The trick is not becoming so attached to a part of it that you can't change it.
